...that's where I get all my planetary science news! not [nature.com]. also [nasa.gov]. also [colorado.edu]. Why do people do this? This is the internet, not your local morning paper. You can go wherever you want to get this information. WHY NOT GO DIRECTLY TO THE SOURCE!?

Forever is a long time. The Sun goes out eventually, and other catastophies could happen sooner.
You can always claim that making lives better for the future doesn't require technology, merely social reform (as if that weren't a technology), but everyhting that makes our lives better than our ancestors is directly or indirectly the result of technological improvments, so it's pretty hard to back that claim up. But, hey, maybe tomorrow human nature will change and we'll all just decide to be nice to one another!
